Minimum fuel and and an empty plane. Everything you see was first try al the way. It was quite enjoyable. The article was very enjoyable too. Thanks Gerold!

Bermuda425 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Fantastic adventure Jack! Just now I'm sitting at Schiphol browsing your topics. Here's a photo from about two hours ago somewhere over the Atlantic. Gee, I'm glad the pilot didn't do the crazy messing aroud you did! https://plus.google.com/u/0/b/104805937929269254228/photos/photo/104805937929269254228/6418018793319673810?icm=false&sqid=109394369421751797731&ssid=3d837418-4b0a-4a2b-8c61-2a5c38b8522c Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't doing anything too out of the ordinary, I wanted to see if I could replicate the real-world flight of that -400 on display and it worked. The engines do hang over like in the article. I was a lot of fun. 10 hours ago, BradB said: +1 - John Thanks John! 7 hours ago, paulb said: Wow! Excellent flying Jack!

I just love aviation, anything at all related to aviation. Actually, I didn't really do anything to aggressive, I've been on real 747's like B.A. out of London and I could swear he did a max climb out of Heathrow. I was pinned back in my seat and loving every minute of it! 2 hours ago, andy1252 said: Excellent stuff Jack! You're really making me want to get some big iron out of the hangar! Thanks Andy! Yes, they're a lot of fun. I didn't even set up the FMS, it was all visual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillwater Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Fantastic shots & landing, Jack! 13 hours ago, Jack Sawyer said: Thanks Gerold! You are welcome. Basically the idea was from Qantas, good to see that there (still) is an airline where not all people working are controllers. 8 hours ago, Bermuda425 said: Just now I'm sitting at Schiphol browsing your topics.

I love Qantas, they've always been my all-time favorite airline, I hope they never change that iconic livery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Martyn, out of all the ones I've done so far this one was my favorite because it really happened. I really had a blast doing that flight.
